She's a lady...


This weekend I finally found "RUSTY"
she is a beautiful dress mannequin.
Her cover was hand-made by someone.
Although it is charming, I wanted her
stripped down to the bare bones.
What a job. I'm still not finished.
I will post more pics when she's done.
Oh yeah, why RUSTY? Well as I stripped
her, I found a Singer Tag and someone
had wrote the name RUSTY on it, so I
guess the previous owner named her.

Forgot a few treasures...




I forgot to show you these awesome little spools of thread.
The one collection came in this old box so that was a plus!



Lilac Love



Is it just me? Or are the Lilacs more beautiful this year than ever?
The sweet lovely aroma fills my kitchen and makes me want them year round!
So for now, I will enjoy them as much as I can, because soon they will be gone to next year.




Last Week's Junkin


The Spring weather has been up and down.
But this past week I got the chance to do some yard sales and junkin.
This was a must have from Two's Company for $5.


I thought she was different and can use it for inspiration to create
something for Christmas this year.


Not an old bowl, but really nice for 50 cents.


This scale is rusty and the paint is crusty, I just loved it!


This old fan was a steal at $3.


A huge bag full!!! 50 cents.

I can't wait to get out and do some more treasure hunting!
